Hunter was a gem to work with right off the bat. He was responsive, professional and patient. He showed up on time and got straight to work. During cocktail hour I went to get my daughter and son-in-law food. Hunter saw me standing in line and immediately asked us what we needed for them. How many plates and then walked with me back to them. He checked on us to make sure we had drinks and if we needed more food. The staff, which was all family, were so courteous and friendly. They bussed the reception and made sure people were happy and they put away our china and glasses with utmost care. My mother-in-law is elderly and doesn't eat much. When he saw the food left on her plate he asked her if she wanted to take it home; he then boxed it up for her and made sure she got what she needed. I cannot praise them enough. We recommended them to everyone at the party and will be using them for our 25th anniversary party next year. We love the people at Southern Smoke and look forward to working with them again. I would highly recommend again and again.

Small town charm meets big city cuisine, in a rustic, vintage building. Service was outstanding,…read moreas were the drinks and food. The hardest part was choosing a drink from the aptly named, southern inspired menu. Should I have the Hell in a Handbasket, Mama's Switch, or a That'll do Pig? You can't go wrong. Sized were much larger than expected and priced far below similar type restaurants we have patronized in larger towns. For dinner, I had the filet, medium rare, and it was perfectly seasoned and cooked. That shouldn't make a restaurant stand out, but based on recent experiences, it was a delight. Dessert was a hot bread pudding accompanied by vanilla ice cream. Superb. Stop by this gem of a place if you are in the area. Lots of cute shops nearby, too.

Delicious! I stopped at this "food truck" trailer for lunch today and it was good stuff. Following…read morebehind two other gents, I decided to copy their order and got one of the ABTs with a brisket wrap. The wrap was okay, nothing special. Nicely loaded and assembled, more stuff than brisket. The winner here was the ABT, an Atomic Buffalo Turd. Absolutely appalling to look at but what would you expect with that name? A jalapeno pepper stuffed with cream cheese and pulled pork, wrapped in bacon and then smoked over hickory. It looks exactly like the name but it's still delicious. Friendly service and outdoor eating. Get an ABT. You'll thank me. [Review 13757 overall, 1078 of 2020, number 1192 in Virginia.]

Forget fast food--if you want barbecue that's tender, flavorful, and melts in your mouth, make the stop. The owners came out and chatted with us, and you can tell it's a family-run place that takes pride in what they do. Very clean. Beautiful views. The food was amazing, the prices were reasonable, and the hospitality was just as good as the barbecue. We'll definitely be making this a regular stop whenever we're headed through the area. Highly recommend!

They always have the best music playing and the entire place is decorated with rock and roll posters. The menu is super extensive with everything from flatbreads to burgers. Of course pork sandwiches, salads and the chicken tenders are as big as the palm of your hand. Service is always great there. Kristy at the bar is a pleasure and always attentive. This is a locally owned restaurant, owned by a resident of Eden who also works there in the kitchen every day. They sometimes have ribs on Thursday but call ahead to be sure if that's why you're heading there. They also have desserts from a local bakery. Cold beer, no liquor. Pets are not allowed as they do not have outside seating. Prices are very fair here, both for the food and beer. Check it out if you're in Eden!!
